Vineyard notes: "The modern day Maison of Veuve Clicquot possesses one of the finest champagne vineyards, both in terms of its size and the quality of its vines. Its 390 hectares are divided between 12 of the 17 Grands Crus, and between 20 of the 44 Premiers Crus that constitute the entire Champagne region. This exceptional heritage was built up over the centuries, founded upon the parcels first established by the founder, and added to by subsequent vineyard directors. In particular, Veuve Clicquot bears the fortuitous territorial mark of Madame Clicquot."

- Harvest Notes
-
Each grape is picked and placed in a basket. Each row is harvested by two grape-pickers, one on each side of the vine. If the grapes on the bunch are not healthy or equally matured enough to meet our stringent standards, they are sorted out and left on the soil. Full baskets of grapes are emptied into short bins that contain less than 50kg; this smaller size helps avoid grapes being crushed. The crates are then loaded onto trailers, to be brought back to the nearest wine-pressing center.

- Winemaking
-
With grapes exclusively from Grands and Premiers Crus, Pinot Noir dominates the blend (51%) and provides the structure that is so typically Clicquot, followed by Chardonnay (34%) that adds finesse and elegance essential in a perfectly balanced wine, and then Meunier (15%) that rounds out the blend.

1953 Vintage: Champagne Learn more
Vintage quality: Excellent
Current condition: Likely past it
The 1953 vintage for Champagne was extremely good.
Although little information exists detailing the vintage, it is likely that it followed similar patterns to other regions of France; namely a warm spring that allowed for both an early and successful budburst and fl...
